31. to Sarah # 14: well said
Laurence ,   Givatayim   (10.25.10)
You said it all, except the episod of his birth certificate. How come a president can be elected without showing his birth certifictae? What is doing the american justice ? Obama is a pure fraud
32. To: Laurence at No. 31
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.25.10)
Thank you for your kind words. To answer your question, it has to do with the American obsession to be politically correct. Obama is black. He ran for the office of president of the United States. In our zeal not to be perceived as racist, Americans simply ignored the fact that the United States Constitution requires that the president and vice president of the United States must be native-born. Rahm Emanuel is responsible for all the spin (his brother is a very big deal in Hollywood, by the way; he spins for a living). The rest of the spin includes such things as rewriting Obama's academic credentials. In our desire not to impugn a black man runnning for president, no one stopped to wonder (or, heaven forfend, ask) why someone who allegedly graduated first in his Harvard class was never recruited by a first-tier law firm (not to mention second, third or fourth-tier firm). Obama's entire public persona is a pack of lies, and in our eagerness not to be perceived as politically incorrect, we allowed ourselves to overlook the fact that the emperor has no clothes. Well, not everyone. Not me -- I voted for the war hero. Can't go wrong with a war hero. Besides, anyone who has ever read any of my talkbacks knows that I do not worship at the altar of political correctness.

Stop shedding crocodile tears! You and 50+ million imbecils " made history" two years ago.
34. Sara B. I doubt you are a taxpayer in either the US or Israe
Victor   (10.25.10)
Taxpayers do not spend all their time on Ynet. I suspect you using Ynet in order to save on therapy bills.
35. To: No. 34
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.25.10)
It is nice to be independently wealthy, I must admit. Basically, it enables me to work according to a schedule of my choosing. Eat your heart out. "I suspect you using ...?" I suspect you are an uneducated lout on public assistance. Your English usage marks you as functionally illiterate; who in the world would hire someone like you? Be nice. You are living off my tax bill, and don't you forget it.
36. Come Nov.2, the entire US will re-organize the community
that obaama will be ,   allowed to over see!   (10.25.10)
37. From the beginning, the job was waay to big for BHO.His REAL
Sheila Jackson ,   USA   (10.25.10)
accomplishment was showing a 6th grade class that he went to speak to, that he still needed to bring along those damn teleprompters to talk to them!! Imagine that, so out of touch with the youth of America, that he neede a prepared speech(one he had to read), to talk to them. In 2012 we will kick him and his sorry wife out of our house and lead him out to pasture where he can control a very small community of thugs and loosers.
38. #34 So tell me, do you pay taxes? Or are you one of those
who are living OFF ,   of my tax dollars???   (10.25.10)
39. 34 - A good one, I wouldn't be surprised
Dave   (10.25.10)
if she is actually a recipient and beneficiary of our tax dollars..:)...
40. Sarah are we talking inheritance tax??
Avi ,   TA   (10.25.10)
41. # 17
Birdi ,   Israel   (10.25.10)
Very true Bella. Obama has given the Israel haters carte blanche to bash Israel at every opportunity. Hopefully Obama wont last long.
42. To: Birdi at No. 41
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. /   (10.25.10)
He won't, dear. A week from tomorrow, by the time the polls close in the United States, Obama will be a lame duck -- even though he hasn't run for re-election and lost! (The term "lame duck" usually refers to a president who runs for re-election and loses -- he is referred to as a "lame duck" for the last two months of his term.) Obama is so unpopular, he will not get the Democratic Party's nomination for the presidential election in 2012; he is already being referred to as a lame duck!
43. To: No. 40
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.25.10)
No; my parents (z.l.) did not leave much of an estate. All their money went to educating their daughters. I am talking about my US and NYS tax bills, which are huge. Israel's isn't all that small, either. Why do you ask? Is it any of your business? If you're worried about death taxes, you needn't be. If your American relative passed away in 2010, no matter the size of the estate, there is no federal income tax due. (Fiscal irresponsibility doesn't BEGIN to describe it, but it was an executive decree.) George Steinbrenner died in 2010, and his $800 million estate goes untaxed by the Federal government. There was a Texas oilman and cattle baron who died in 2010 leaving an estate worth $11 billion. Again, no federal tax due. Do you see why we REALLY need to get rid of Obama?
44. 16. Sarah is beyond a doubt correct in her assessments
Proud American   (10.25.10)
Obama is the worst thing that has ever happened to our country. He is a liar and a fraud. For the first time in my life I am no longer a registered Democrat, and it was Obama that was my deciding factor. His goal is not to show and improve upon America's greatness, but rather to level the playing field and show America to be no better than any other country. He shames us all.
45. Obama campaign...
Malone ,   Hfx   (10.26.10)
We all watched the never ending BS of Obama on TV during his campaign en route to be "American Idol",lol. My friends around me were swooning,caught up in the rapture of this phony.(we're Canucks,by the way),but there was nothing else on at the local Legion except Oprah,.not for me,thanks. I was one of two people that heard 3 of his speeches,and that was enough for us. He's still campaigning,actually ,never stopped How is it possible that myself and my friend could see through this phony after 3 speeches,and millions couldn't? Are there that many lefties out there? Scary thought.
46. Turning the Corner
Reality Check ,   USA   (10.26.10)
Presiding over Americans loss of jobs, homes and savings and polarizing the people. Middle American popular anger is more than Bush or Vietnam. When starts to lose power post 2010 election look out Israel and other regime enemies, a cornered dog is viscous.
47. "We've been conned and we don''t...
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (10.26.10)
like it. We are just now finding out what a monstrosity that health care bill really is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcBaSP31Be8 And then there are the lies. One here and one there doesn't sound too bad. But when put together, one wonders, if some people even know the difference between truth and lie. It all goes back to, "Show me your friends, and I'll tell you who you are," according to which Obama should never have been elected.
48. Dave # 39
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (10.26.10)
I doubt if anyone gets any tax dollars from you Dave. You probably don't earn enough to pay taxes.
49. # 48 Eagle..
Birdi ,   Israel   (10.26.10)
Kudos.
50. # 42 Sarah B.
Birdi ,   Israel   (10.27.10)
INSHALLAH, Sarah B,
51. Sarah, Proud American
Rose Carter ,   Muskogee, USA   (10.28.10)
Your so very correct, I watched Fox News in 2007-8 and learned very quickly not to vote for the Democrat side, and have learned a lot since then about h.obama. Once, I was a democrat, but no more... vote for America I too love Israel...and all of their people...may GOD give them all of their biblical land..
